XII
MARIE SIXTINE
A pretty name for such a pretty place.
Visitors are received upstairs,
as if you were arriving at a friend’s
apartment. A secret, cozy space
reserved for guests, it can be hired
privately for a day of yoga or personal
shopping, or a knitting workshop,
surrounded by plant-dyed
woolen pompons. The apartment is
filled with accessories and clothes
by Marie Sixtine, a women’s
brand founded in 2010 that has
reinvented knitwear basics
with a fashionable twist that makes
all the difference. The Charonne
outlet includes a design workshop,
showroom, store and secret space.
Marie Sixtine, 5, rue de Charonne, 11th.

ISABEL MARANT
You really can’t go wrong
with Isabel Marant. Regal
yet guarded, the store
looks like all the others
(that’s the brand identity
talking), but it’s more
relaxed and even simple.
Isabel Marant on rue de
Charonne is worth the
detour... You’re guaranteed
a warm welcome!
Isabel Marant.
